Meet The Maker - Graham Wasilition, Tenneyson Black Ginger
In the spirited atmosphere of Umbra's Retreat Room, Graham Wasilition of Tenneyson regaled attendees with genuine warmth, sharing stories of Tenneyson Black Ginger's evolution, chronicling the ups and downs, triumphs, and trials.
With his expertise in hospitality, and along with his partner Michael Bumgarner, a plant-based wellness expert, they embarked on a journey to create Tenneyson, a botanical spirit that's a BIG, FRESH, and BOLD reimagination of what a beverage can be. Graham described how they forged a new path that neither mimics nor follows traditional spirits.
Tenneyson's distinct identity resonates with the adventurous and visionary. Its Black Ginger botanical spirit, crafted from ingredients like dandelion, lemon balm, bergamot, yerba mate, grape seed, and gentian, offers a robust and spicy taste that's both invigorating and unique. Whether enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or as the star in mixed drinks, its versatile flavor promises a delightful experience.
Complementing its innovative flavor profile, Tenneyson's commitments to health and ethical sourcing shine through. With no added sugar, caffeine, artificial flavors, or colors, it appeals to the health conscious. Its low-calorie, gluten-free, and mostly vegan nature emphasizes a broader dedication to quality.
Tenneyson is not just a drink but a movement, a unique direction for those ready to embrace change. It's for the pioneers, the bold, and those who see where the world is headed and want to get there first. It's a bright constellation in the nonalcoholic beverage sector, symbolizing a future filled with possibility.
Attendees left the event inspired, carrying with them a newfound appreciation for the creativity and innovation within the nonalcoholic beverage world. Graham's passion was contagious, and special thanks were given to Kelley Lindes for hosting such a meaningful gathering. And the dishes created by Chef Kevin Aho were a visual feast, as appealing to the eyes as they were to the palate.
